Description

This is a follow up of #8821

Create a "sanitization" function wrapping sprintf() to make sure expected placeholders are found into the translated strings.

Although we think this kind of function should be made available by WordPress, in ​this ticket the issue was diagnosed as invalid. It's probably ok when you have a lot of polyglots contributors like WordPress has, it's a different situation for plugins: let's prevent these potential fatals in 12.0

That would be nice to have this, but we must use our time for other priorities for now. Don't hesitate to submit a patch to help us progress.
